The host was welcoming and able to answer questions we had. The accommodations were nice and comfortable. It was plenty of space for 3-4 people. Not sure if six would fit. We brought our dog because we planned to hike around the area. There are fabulous hiking trails within a twenty mile radius. Unfortunately there isn’t much of a yard for a dog to do her/his business. The cabin had a fire pit (we didn’t use) and a hot tub which was one of the things we wanted. It did work the first two nights but quit after that. It was a wonderful location for what we wanted to do.

Great little cabin East of Estes Park Colorado. Its a 20 minute drive to the National Park and roughly 90 mins back to the Denver International Airport. Cabin had a nice kitchen and outdoor grill we made dinner on every night. Very clean and nice beds. Only two bedrooms and one bath but sleeps 4 adults no problem. The deck is great with a gas fire pit. I was able to put in a few hours of conference calls before everyone started moving in the morning on that deck ... Which is an added bonus if you can't really get away from work!

Very nice, clean, quiet, and cozy cabin getaway. Hot tub, deck, and fire pit were very nice amenities, as well as the inside fireplace. Host very responsive and easy to get ahold of. Less than 30min away from Estes and Rocky Mountain National Park. Enjoyed our stay, 2 adults, and 4 kiddos. 2 kids shared a bed, 1 used the air mattress provided and our infant used the pack and play.

Great getaway spot!

The house was incredible, perfect size for a weekend getaway for CSU graduation! Great space, you can hear the Thompson River flowing right in front of the house. We will definitely stay again, a little bit of a drive to Ft. Collins and very close to beautiful Estes Park, perfect location for our needs.

Beautiful cabin

My family had such a relaxing 3 day stay. The drive up there is so pretty, the canyon is beautiful! The covered patio with the hot tube was nice. The beds and pillows were super comfortable. The cabin was clean and the inside aesthetics of the cabin are pretty. We went a couple days before Christmas and the cute Christmas tree they had set up was a really nice touch. You can hear the stream up to the cabin and the walk down the trail to the stream was so beautiful. The owner and his assistants stayed in contact with us the whole stay to make sure we needed anything and were very personable.
